Dry ice is the common name for the solid form of carbon dioxide. At -109.3° F, it offers a lower temperature than water ice. You get longer holding times and requires no cleanup since it sublimates instead of melting. Sublimate simply means it changes directly from a solid to a gas. Due to these unique properties, it has a wide variety of commercial and individual uses.

Commercial

Some of the most common uses of dry ice are in the food and beverage industry. Used in dry food production, food storage and distribution, meat processing, airline catering, and eCommerce frozen fulfillment.
